Sharon and John | Engagement

Let me just start by saying: Sharon and John are incredible! We had so much fun getting to know them and shooting their engagement session. We shot at the Mellwood Art Center, which is an old industrial building converted to a contemporary art and entertainment center. I think it is so interesting (and I LOVE) how contemporary art combines itself so well with historic and run-down buildings. Sharon is in art school, and they both have a very artsy, urban type of style, so this place immediately came to mind!

Eric and I are really looking forward to their wedding, which is coming up quick!

Enjoy a few favorites from the day...

Heather | Senior Portraits

First off, let me just say how much I loved shooting Heather's senior portraits! She is absolutely gorgeous, and so much fun to work with! Though she denied it early on, I'd believe she is a natural model, or at least watches America's Next Top Model. She was great!

We started out where Heather keeps her horse, and there is this AMAZING old red barn. Dilapidated buildings are always my favorite to shoot with!! From there, we went to a local park. We thought there was a cool waterfall we could use, but when we got there it was nothing but slime (gross!). So we nixed the waterfall idea, but still got some amazing shots against the rocks and the graffiti on the walls.

I truly loved shooting with Heather, and am so excited about the photos we were able to get! It was hard not to post all of them! Congrats on graduating, Heather, and good luck!

Jessica and Greg | Engagement

We had an incredible time shooting Jessica and Greg's engagement session. The couple met at the Pink Door in the Highlands, so that was the starting point for us in their session. We walked around Douglass Loop, stopped by Graeter's for some yummy ice cream, and then headed over to Tyler Park to play on the swings. Jessica and Greg were so much fun to photograph, and I can't wait until their June wedding! I know it'll be amazing!

Until then, here are a few of my favorites from this time...

Beach Wedding!

Congrats to Elizabeth and Rob, who just got married in beautiful Destin, Florida! Eric and I had an awesome trip, though we would have loved to stay for the whole week. We spent the day before the ceremony scoping everything out and just having fun, which was great because we stumbled across a gorgeous--and fairly secluded--beach that we ended up using for photographs. The weather was less than ideal... overcast the entire weekend and THUNDERSTORMING the day of the wedding! Luckily for Elizabeth and Rob, there was a break when we got some shots of the girls, and it was over just in time for the ceremony. The storm clouds made for some pretty awesome photos, though! The ceremony was on the beach at Anglers' Beachside Grill, and the reception was in a private room at Fleming's Prime Steakhouse (which has absolutely incredible food, by the way!) We went back to the secluded beach the next day with the two of them, and got some amazing shots! Here's a few of my faves from the trip... and congrats to the newlyweds!
